Believer’s love of God

SHAFAQNA – Ayah 165 of Surah Al-Baqarah says: “There are some (foolish) people who take others just as they do God and love them as much as they must love God. Those who believe, their utmost love is only for God. If (only) the evil doing unbelievers could know at the time when they face torment that the whole power and ability are at God’s disposal. And the torment of God (for unbelievers) is very severe.” The utmost love of believers for Allah (SWT) in this Ayah has two sides: The believers’ love towards God is more intense than unbelievers’ love towards their idols; and the believers’ love towards God is more intense than towards any other thing or person.
